Exercise 3: Export the drawing layers to SDF - Select the
layers
In this exercise, you export the drawing layers from the original DWG file to
a new SDF file. The original drawing layers become geospatial features with
properties that reflect the object data and AutoCAD properties.
Use the Export dialog box to map each layer to a target feature class and
convert object data and properties to geospatial attribute data. Once you set
up the mapping, you can save your settings as a profile, allowing you to use
the settings over and over again.
You cannot maintain styling information when you export drawing objects
to SDF, but you can include object attributes. When you export the Waterline
layer, you map the Color attribute to a SIZE property.
The Export dialog box has three tabs. The following exercises describe the
steps to take on each tab.
NOTE This exercise uses the DWGMap.dwg map file you opened and modified in
